BarryT Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 I need a set of standard front brake calipers in good condition. Anyone upgraded and got a set lying around? Barry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nifty Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Barry, How soon do you need them? I have some 4 pots that I shall be putting on ASAP .. but that could be June!! If you hassle me I may get to it sooner. You're welcome to my standard ones when they're off - I have painted them with black hammerite (with a brush). You will probably want to tart them up again. A donation to NTL would suffice. Nifty. Keep off the straight and narrow 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarryT Posted May 2, 2006 Author Share Posted May 2, 2006 Thanks Nifty. if push comes to shove I can wait 'til June as it is likely I won't to use the car again untill the middle of June, so I'll take them. Barry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Pargiter Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Barry I have just upgraded so have a set in the garage. YHM Cheers Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nifty Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Barry, I spoke to Hi Spec about acquiring a pair of their rear calipers too (coz I hate the weight of the Sierra jobs). They reckoned 10 days lead time. I didn't have my card details to hand so can't order until tomorrow and they are a little notorious for late delivery so I'd suggest you take Nicks if you want to be sure to have it back on the road by mid June I shan't swap the fronts until I can do all of them and with Curborough at the end of the month I don't want to pull my car apart too close to then and cause further problems meaning I miss the event. I 've yet to compete once with a fully functioning car ❗ ❗ Keep off the straight and narrow 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarryT Posted May 3, 2006 Author Share Posted May 3, 2006 Niftty, I have arranged to see Nick's on Friday. Good luck with the Hi Specs. Will be interested to hear how you find their delivery and braking performance. Thanks, Barry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nifty Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 A good start 🤔 Yesterday they told me a 10 day lead time, today they talk about 4 weeks *confused* Keep off the straight and narrow 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
